Sally Simpson - Soundtrack (电影原声带)

Outside the house Mr Simpson announced

That Sally couldn't go to the meeting

He went on cleaning

His black Rolls Royce

And she ran inside weeping

She got to her room

And tears splashed the picture

Of the new Messiah

She picked up a book

Of her father's life

And threw it on the fire

She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her mother said

"Never mind your part

Is to be what you'll be"

The theme of the sermon

Was "Come Unto Me"

Love will find a way

So Sally decided to ignore her Dad

And sneak out anyway

She spent all afternoon getting ready

And decided she'd try to touch him

Maybe he'd see that she was free

And talk to her this Sunday

She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her mother said

"Never mind your part

Is to be what you'll be"

She arrived at six

And the place was swingin'

To gospel music by nine

Group after group

Appeared on the stage

And Sally just sat there crying

She bit her nails

Looking pretty as a picture

Right in the very front row

And then one of the faithful

Came on stage

And shouted "Here we go "

The crowd went crazy

As Tommy hit the stage

Little Sally got lost

As the police bossed

The crowd back in a rage

Your happy welcome is like a favour

I must now return

The darkness of my childhood passed

And flames of blood now burn

The pinball game I play so well

Reflects a way of life

This meeting is just another game

Let's play to win tonight

She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her mother said

"Never mind your part

Is to be what you'll be"

Her cheek hit a chair

And blood trickled down

Mingling with her tears

Try to walk the path I walked

Never mind the pain and fear

Each one of you has freedom

In your heart without my grace

Let me see you raise your hands

See joy upon your face

The crowd went crazy

As Tommy left the stage

Little Sally was lost

For the price of a touch

And a gash across her face

Her pretty face

Sixteen stitches put her right

And her Dad said

"Don't say I didn't warn yer"

Sally got married to a rock musician

Who came from California

Tommy always talks about the day

The disciples all went wild

Sally still carries a scar on her cheek

To remind her of his smile

She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her mother said

"Never mind your part

Is to be what you'll be"
